Pure Presence: Rootedness through Sacred Listening

“Pure Presence” is a unique protocol developed by spiritual director and educator, Dr. Janice L. Lundy, for sacred listening that can enhance and deepen our ability to offer presence—the deepest empathy and spiritual care—to whomever we are with. It is presence without agenda. It is presence that welcomes each individual who steps across our threshold (mental or physical) with wholeheartedness and compassion. This is not any easy thing to do today, given our ethnic, religious and political differences.

In this day-long seminar, you will learn the practice of Pure Presence by cultivating non-judgmental awareness and compassionate presence for yourself first, and then for others. You will transparently and compassionately attend to areas of inner tension so you can have open-hearted conversations that will lead to enhanced relationships and positive outcomes with whomever you meet or serve. This approach to formal presence training can deepen and advance spiritual understanding and care in our homes, neighborhoods, workplaces and religious communities.
